Partners In Impact

Schools

9822568023_774159c069_oReading Partners works with under-resourced schools in geographic centers around the country. Our one-on-one tutoring model is proven to raise students’ reading proficiency. To qualify for our direct service, a majority of the students enrolled at the school must qualify for free/reduced lunch.

What Reading Partners Offers:

  • Working with school leaders, Reading Partners transforms a classroom into a reading center, complete with a library and teaching tools managed by a full-time staff or AmeriCorps member.
  • Reading Partners collaborates with teachers to identify students reading one month or more behind grade level, and provides them with individualized literacy instruction.
  • Reading Partners recruits and trains community volunteers to provide weekly one-on-one literacy tutoring using its evidence-based curriculum, a series of structured lesson plans that progress from phonics instructions for younger students to higher-order comprehension strategies for older students.

If you think your local school would benefit from the Reading Partners program, please request our program.

FERPA Compliance: In an effort to secure the privacy of our students, Reading Partners program is in full compliance with all tenets of the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA).
